A system for assembling furniture includes a bracket coupled to a first item and a frame coupled to a second item of furniture. The bracket is configured to removably interengage with the frame. The bracket includes a pair of co-planar extensions, a pair of supports, and an elongated resilient bent middle section having a length dimension that is longer than a length dimension of each of the extensions such that end tab portions of the bent middle section extend beyond the supports. The frame includes a pair of rails, each rail having a recess and a flange. The recess receives respective ones of the end tab portions. The flange receives respective ones of the end tab portions responsive to the middle section being urged from the recess into the flange to cause the bent middle section to deform into an interference fit engagement with the flange.
